chapter 2
"What is it Murrue" asked Kira as he turned and faced her. Murrue smiled at him and went to sit next to him on the bed. "Kira there is something I have to tell you" said Murrue. Kira nodded his head and said "Alright, what is it". Murrue took a breath and began to tell him what she had found out. "We have found out where the Minerva was staying and that they were going to attack the ship" said Murrue. Kira stared at Murrue with what did you say look on his face. He couldn't believe this, why on earth are they going to attack the Minerva. Kira stood up and turned and face Murrue. He knew that he needed to tell them about his and Lacus's daughter. "Murrue I have something that I need to tell you said Kira. He had no idea how she would react to what he was about to say. Murrue stared at Kira with a look that said I am listening. "Me and Lacus have a daughter, her name is Akira" said Kira. Murrue stared at Kira with shock written on her face, she was speachless.
Murrue opened her mouth to speak but then closed it again. She had no idea how to respond to what he just said to her. She took a breath and then said "Why didn't you tell us that you and Lacus had a child". Kira stared at her and sighed. "I didn't want her to be part of the war" said Kira. Murrue nodded,she understood how Kira felt. A child should not be caught up in a war. Kira got up and stood up and looked at Murrue. "Alright let's go" said Kira. Murrue stood up and nodded. "Right" said Murrue as she walked towards the door with Kira following her. He hoped that Akira was safe and well.
Murrue walked to the bridge while Kira went to the hanger to get ready. He walked towards the strike and climbed up and got inside. He began to start up the gundam by typing on the keys inside the gundam. Soon the gundam was ready to launch when they got closer to the target. Murrue was sitting in the captain chair watching the screen,while the others look for the minerva. Soon they found the signal of the Minerva. "We found it captain said one of her crew members. Murrue looked at him and said "right,then get ready for battle". Every went to there battle stations. Kira was getting the strike ready for battle.
Inside the strike Kira took out a picture of him,lacus and their daughter Akira. He stared at the picture thinking of them,hoping that they were both safe. Kira then got a message for him to launch. He pressed the pattle with his foot and took off into the sky. When he got into the sky,the Minerva's alarm went off right after Kira launched. Athurn ran towards the hanger right after he made sure that Akira was secured in his room. He didn't want her to get hurt. Shin ran past the room not before staring at it for a bit,he then ran towards the hanger as well.
Akira ran towards a small window in his room and looked out. What she saw made her eyes go wide. She saw her dad's gundam flying around the sky. "Daddy" whispered Akira,her eyes all teary eyed. She turned and ran to the door and tried to open it but found that it was locked. She banged on the door hoping to get someone's attention. She soon heard a boom and turned around and saw a flash and smoke out the window,she ran to the window and peered outside. What she saw made her gasps.
